Filipino-American fighter Brandon Vera is raring to get back in the Circle after missing to see action this year.
Aside from the coronavirus pandemic, Vera focused on family time in Guam as he and wife Jessica Craven welcomed their son Atreyu Timothy last July.
That said, Vera has set his sight for a 2021 comeback in the hopes of defending his heavyweight title anew after more than a year of hiatus.
“I’m very much looking forward to all of the challenges and all of the challengers,” said Vera. “I’m looking to fight twice a year. There are enough people that I want to compete against throughout the year to motivate me to go twice.”
